Fed up with fellow passengers talking too loudly on the phone?

French firm Skyted has the solution – a mask worn by the person speaking that stops those around them hearing their conversation.

The bizarre-looking device relies on military-grade material used to silence jet engines.

Weighing 220 grams, a microphone sits inside the mask so the person on the other end of the call doesn’t hear external noise either. While 80 per cent of the voice vibration is absorbed by the mask, users can still breathe easily as the airflow moves in and out without constraint.

Founder Stephane Hersen – who previously worked for Airbus – designed the device for business people to make private calls while on the go.

Speaking at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, he said: ‘Working in the aviation industry, it was logical to engineer the mask with an aerospace sourced acoustic absorber, so our mask is made of metamaterial, an acoustic liner [originally] developed… to silence the blast in jet engines.’
